Our last night in Djibouti, we found a nice spot a few hundred meters from the Indian ocean. Rolling stones from the the rocky hillside, caused by some curious goats where the only signs of life since we camped around 17.00 in the afternoon.

The women at the Nor/Swe/Den consulate did everything possible to make us feel "at home". Mike Izza offered us a nice spot for Betsy and me, Johan got (again) his own little room with air condition, power points and toilet/shower. Lets just say; this is how we would love to be welcomed by the embassies throughout the rest of Africa.

Our translator and "secretary" helped us with setting up a meeting with a child for the bookproject, fixing visa for Eritrea and everything else we wanted. Thanks a million to all the staff.
